Lake Of The Healing Sadhu - Video

Pitchandikulam Forest is a 63-acre patch of land on the outskirts of Auroville, India.

For the planet to survive we must seek to change peoples paradigms one soul at a time.

The inner garment of our soul is one of inspiration and imagination. It is crucial that we… Continue

Our Beautiful Star

To hear the Sun,

What a thing to believe,

But it’s all around,

If we could but perceive.

—Graeme Edge, ‘68

The Sun gives Life to our planet, our gardens, our business, our families, ...indeed every aspect of our life benefits and survives because of our beautiful Star! Every inspiration, every breath, every feeling could not be possible without The Sun! And yet when we express such ideas, there is still a vague sense that one is indulging in some naive,… Continue

Would You Nurture My Soul

"Let your mind start a journey thru a strange new world. Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before. Let your soul take you where you long to be...Close your eyes let your spirit start to soar, and you'll live as you've never lived before."

Erich Fromm

Would you nurture my soul if I said please? Would you embrace my spirit if you saw my pain? Would you tell me you loved me if you knew how powerful words can be?

The landscape of human feeling is awash… Continue

Weekly Tidbit: More on Letting Go and Making Room

In her book The Wisdom of No Escape, Pema Chodron discusses the Buddhist concept of renunciation in language that invites new perspective and application.

"Renunciation is realizing that our nostalgia for wanting to stay in a protected, limited petty world is insane. Once you begin to get the feeling of how big the world is and how vast our potential for experiencing life is, then you really begin to understand renunciation......When we sit in meditation, we feel our breath as… Continue

Crow Mother

I have spent many years learning about Crow Medicine and living within its reality. And trust me not of my own desire to learn – this path is truly not a chosen path but literally takes you along kicking & screaming if necessary.

You are so strongly guided along your path that there is no deviation – no turning back – and no choice but to take notes and try to learn and grow spiritually from the experience or feel as if you… Continue

FORGIVENESS - THE CORNERSTONE OF ATTITUDINAL HEALING by Jerry Jampolsky, M.D., & Diane Cirincione, Ph.D.

If you use your imagination and imagine that your read in the newspaper tomorrow and heard on television and radio that a new drug had been invented that would take away all the anger and grievances that you are holding on to and would bring you peace and happiness, that the drug was free and that you could not overdose on it, wouldn’t we all rush out to get that drug

Well, this is what forgiveness does and more. It takes your anxiety away, dissolves fear, makes you feel secure, puts… Continue

I can't imagine feeling any more prosperous

Riding through the beautiful Kentucky countryside, feeling so blest, this song came to me.

I CAN’T IMAGINE

I can’t imagine feeling any more prosperous
Than I feel right now.
To have the time to just be in nature
And let my spirit soar
Into infinite possibility
Where anything can be.
Where everywhere I find myself
Is where I’m meant to be
To contribute whatever I can
By simply being me.

Dear Caren~~~~~

Dear Caren,

I knew today was coming and I knew it would bring back many memories of you, my dear friend. Your amazing spirit entered the world on this day, 56 years ago. And, your physical self left this world 6 months ago. I miss you. I wish we'd been more in touch over the last few years of your life, I thought there was time for that...

So, today I wish to honor you and allow your love and energy to soothe me. I could ramble on about sadness and how it's too bad life… Continue

"Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage."

Encroaching on Our Wildlife

When I moved to Florida, from the Concrete slabs of New York City, I envisioned a move to a State where wildlife was provided with safe havens......I was so wrong !!! since 1996, I have witnessed how little we as humans, concern ourselves with the protection of our natural resources. To illustrate my concern, I live in an area, which is surrounded by lush forests, and just recently I was appalled to see this Development Company, come in and completely level and destroy a complete section of… Continue
